This is my last project as a guest designer for Scrapiniec. It was a great honor and I had a lot of fun playing with all the beautiful chipboard designs!! Thank you very much! This layout is devoted to Asica Panewka because her favorite color is lilac :) . For the background I used a stencil and 3 different shades of purple/lilac distress inks. The chipboard pieces were also painted with distress inks, white paint and stickles. I hope I have inspired you the last three months! Remember, there are no rules! Just let yourself free to create ART from your heart and have fun!! Hugs from Greece!!xoxo

Once again, I focused on the colors of my photo in order to create the background so I used khaki, blue and pink. I glued small pieces of paper together, covered with gesso, then I applied some modeling paste using a stencil and sprayed with water and mists. The chipboard pieces were painted with distress inks and gelatos. Thanks for looking, have a nice day!!

Today I am sharing with you a page I made to remember our lovely time in Istanbul. I have used warm colors in order to match the atmosphere of the city! The chipboard pieces were mainly painted with gelatos and gold glitter. For the background, I glued some pieces of chipboard, covered them with gesso and then I sprayed with water and several mists. Some stamping as well and then I created my cluster using also some rope and burlap to give texture!

This layout was made for Scrapiniec as I am their guest designer and I am also participating in "Words & paintery" for the very inspiriring color combo!

I would like to share with you today a layout I made featuring my older daughter "Nefeli". She has a great look on her face so it was a perfect match with the title "Dreamer". The tip for this page is to use two different papers glued together and in the middle, to place some lace in order to give texture, depth and a shabby chic look!!

With this layout I participate in two challenges. ARTastic for the use of flowers (that;s easy for me lol) and Scrapki for using leaves.

TFL!!

I must apologize for the dark photos but they were taken mid-week when I get home from work late so there is not enough light :( ....

For today's post I have created a canvas. I like to play around and experiment. I covered all the canvas with gesso, Second step was to add some texture using a stencil and modeling paste. I sprayed 4 different shades of green, some red and orange and a lot of water to mix them up! Then I stamped randomly and built my cluster. In the end I used some gold glitter to give some shine here and there. The chipboard pieces were painted gold and then they were distressed with some Ranger distress inks. I am sorry for the dark photos but Autumn has finally reached my country :P
